I don't know what bill is.. but he's very gigantic! He's also does a lot of meowing and climbing up my leg especially if I don't give him my full attention. As if his heavy self could actually climb me......
I think he still thinks of himself as a kitten......

oh that wouldnt be surprising at all.
household pets tend to stay in a baby-mode.
a soviet experiment w foxes confirmed that dogs stay in puppy-mode. fox puppies bark, same as wolf puppies, as barking is kindova a "gaga-guga" for canines.
the soviets managed to tame foxes, and got the following results:
ears hanging down.
fur changed color to dark brown/black.
they kept barking into adulthood.
their tail curled upwards.
i think its very likely that most cats consider themselves a youngster too, since you keep feeding and taking care of them.
i am convinced my cat regards me as some sort of parent-figure, rather than a friend or a sibling. one thing's for sure: they do NOT see you as an "owner"
Social Fanthom: i REALLY wish i had a digital camera. among all the stuff i'd like to photo, there are some fantastic poses my cat strikes, from time to time
i love her peek-a-boo thing around the corners too. priceless
